Hi, hope you're having a good summer! This is a gentle reminder to get your tickets for Göteborg Art Sounds Festival 2026: Shifting Spaces. As venues have different capacities, we strongly urge you to secure your spot while they are available. Also make sure to apply for the free workshops, since they can only accept a limited number of participants.

22 - 27 September we present an international line-up of artists within experimental contemporary music and sound, and move through various venues in Gothenburg and the West of Sweden, exploring different spaces and their contexts through concerts, workshops and talks. We look forward to seeing you out there!

Catherine Lamb is a composer and co-initiator of Harmonic Space Orchestra - an ensemble of Berlin-based musicians specialising in the research and performance of microtonal music, particularly its relationship to acoustics and rational intonation/just intonation. HSO is today considered the most accomplished ensemble in the world dedicated to this kind of harmony.

The talk is moderated by Rosali Grankull in collaboration with Goethe-Institut Sweden and Föreningen Svenska Tonsättare.

27/07/2026

This workshop invites participants into a shared space of listening, experimentation, and collective creativity. Through improvisation, sound becomes a means of exploration and exchange, where each participant contributes to shaping the musical experience. Working with instruments, electronics, objects, voice, and silence, the session will develop different approaches to spontaneous music-making. Simple exercises and collective practices will encourage attentive listening, responsiveness, risk-taking, and collaboration.

Open to musicians and non-musicians alike, the workshop welcomes anyone interested in improvisation, noise, experimental music, or new ways of listening. No previous experience required. Participants are welcome to bring an instrument, a sound-making object, or simply their voice.

This workshop delves into the artistic potential of electronic components by using their conventional functions as a starting point for creative exploration. Participants will learn the basics of electronics and how to read fundamental schematics. Through hands-on practice, we will identify the component's artistic attributes and experiment with ways to intentionally introduce "new complexity" into these circuits, creating unique, unexpected outcomes.

The workshop will culminate in a short collaborative improvisation session, using these custom-built circuits as our primaray sound sources. Bring any conductive objects and an open mind. No background knowledge in music or electronics is required.

Ji Youn Kang is a Korean composer, performer and sound artist based in The Netherlands. Much of her work is informed by the rites of Korean Shamanism, and many of her pieces, written for Wave Field Synthesis systems, explore the relationship between sonic and physical space. As a solo performer, she combines three sound domains: acoustic instruments, analogue and digital audio, using DIY analogue synthesizers and live processing on a laptop. She currently teaches at the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatoire of The Hague.

Hardi Kurda’s work moves across and beyond the boundaries of music, bringing together suggestive and unconventional sonic materials, unexpected silences, and textured noise created with radio antennas. His practice sits at the intersection of improvisation, composition, and sonic activism, including projects such as Archive Khanah in Kurdistan.
